³When the Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become so holy that its transfer to holiness is merely its natural extension. ⁴Love transfers to love without any interference, for the two are one. ⁵As you perceive more and more common elements in all situations, the transfer of training under the Holy Spirit’s guidance increases and becomes generalized. ⁶Gradually you learn to apply it to everyone and everything, for its applicability is universal. ⁷When this has been accomplished, perception and knowledge have become so similar that they share the unification of the laws of God.
What is one cannot be perceived as separate, and the denial of the separation is the reinstatement of knowledge. …³Very gently does God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of Himself that is His Son. ⁴The world has no purpose as it blends into the purpose of God. ⁵For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where everything eternal in it has always been. ⁶There the Redeemer and the redeemed join in perfect love of God and of each other. ⁷Heaven is your home, and being in God it must also be in you. (A Course in Miracles, T-12.VI.6:3-7;7:1,3-7. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
The ego sees problems in myriad forms. It tells us each problem needs to be solved in a different way. It does not tell us that the underlying source of the problem is belief in separation. With this belief removed, all problems disappear. What remains is the eternal, changeless Love of God.
While we seem to exist in the dream of separation, we need to call upon the Holy Spirit for His perception of every problem. His perception will always lead us toward the recognition that only Love is real. His lessons are specific to our perceived problems. They teach us to see beyond the appearance to the Reality of Love.
As we learn these valuable lessons, we begin to see what we’ve learned generalize. Increasingly we recognize the reality of Love beyond the appearance. The perception of a problem is generalized as meaningless. As we let our lessons generalize, we feel the blessing of God’s Love strengthen. We feel His support.
Today we continue the practice of asking the Holy Spirit for His perception to replace our own. It’s worth the effort, for It will bring us Home to Love.
